Blume also stated that the company plans to crank up the volumes to 60,000 units per year between the two electric cars. The goal can be achieved if the Mission E delivers the expected performance.

The Mission E is likely to have a range of over 500km on a single charge. But unfortunately, it's not based on the real-world conditions. Still, the car would deliver a range of around 400km.
